Comment (by flixos90):

 In [changeset:"40390"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="40390"
 Multisite: Introduce a `setup_network` capability for setting up
 multisite.

 `setup_network` is a new meta capability that brings more granular control
 over the permissions to setup a multisite environment. In a non-multisite
 environment it falls back to `manage_options` while in a multisite it
 falls back to `manage_network_options`. The introduction of this
 capability furthermore allows replacing an `is_super_admin()` check.

 Props ashokkumar24 for the original patch.
 Fixes #39206. See #37616.
